ECEC 2022: Europe's largest compliance conference
In five days, the "European Compliance & Ethics Conference" (ECEC) will open its virtual doors for the third time: Europe's largest compliance conference, for which more than 6,000 participants have already registered this year, will once again offer an exciting program with 40 different sessions and many internationally renowned speakers on October 11 and 12.
"The beginning of autumn is ECEC time! Every year we are surprised anew how quickly the conference grows and has established itself as a communication platform for compliance, ethics and also ESG professionals. This can also be seen in the once again large number of high-caliber speakers and experts who have made their commitment to Europe's largest industry gathering," says Marcus Sultzer, Member of the Management Board of EQS Group, a provider of regulatory technology software and services. ECEC 2022 will take place on October 11 and 12.
ECEC 2022 with exciting presentations
This year, it was not difficult to put together a varied program with 70 speakers for the two days of the conference, according to the organizers. The story of Xavier André Justo, who uncovered one of the world's biggest financial scandals, is as exciting as a thriller. Thanks to the information that the Swiss gave to a newspaper, it came out that the Malaysian sovereign wealth fund 1MDB was downright plundered. A billion-dollar scandal with dramatic consequences for the whistleblower, who faced brutal retaliation and even spent 18 months in a Thai prison.
On the second day of the conference, investigative journalist Frederik Obermaier will provide answers to the question of why many well-known whistleblowers turn to the media rather than using internal channels to draw attention to abuses. Together with his colleagues, the Pulitzer Prize winner initiated the Panama Papers and Suisse Secrets revelations. In each case, he received important information and data from anonymous sources.
Award for outstanding compliance projects
The finalists competing with their compliance projects for the "ECEC Award 2022" have also been determined. The international jury selected Novartis AG and TÜV Austria from the numerous applications. The winner of the award will again be determined by the conference participants in a live vote at the end of the second day of ECEC.
Even though ECEC 2022 will already open in five days: Late deciders still have the opportunity to secure a ticket and thus gain free access to the keynotes, panel discussions, workshops and expert talks.
